Trump Called USA Hockey Team To Congratulate Them, Then Made Disgusting Joke On Women’s Team — And It Was All Caught On Video

President Donald Trump is facing criticism on Monday after he joked with the Olympic podium-topping U.S. men’s ice hockey team about having to invite the gold medal-winning American women’s squad to the White House, as well.

In a congratulatory phone call with the U.S. men, who took gold at the Winter Olympics for the first time in 46 years, Trump suggested using military aircraft to fly the team out to his State of the Union address on Tuesday before sharing a “very cool” pitch for the team to visit the White House the following day.

“And we have to — I must tell you — we’re going to have to bring the women’s team,” said Trump, who went on to chuckle as the American men burst into laughter in a clip circulating on social media.

He added, “[If I don’t] do that, I do believe I probably would be impeached, OK?”

The clip shows FBI Director Kash Patel, who is facing backlash of his own for guzzling beers with the U.S. men on a reportedly taxpayer-funded trip to Italy, holding the phone as Trump speaks to the team and telling the president in a slurred voice that he can arrange such a visit.

Both the U.S. men and women went undefeated in group stage play at the Winter Olympics and made it through the playoffs before securing gold by defeating the rival Canadians in overtime, by the same score (2-1).

The win for the American women marked their third gold since the Olympic sport’s introduction back in 1998.

Social media users slammed Trump over his joke, including activist Shannon Watts, who denounced the president on X for “begrudgingly” extending the invite to the gold medal-winning women. She slammed the men’s team for laughing along.

Critics on X called the men in the video “spineless” and characterized the clip as “dispiriting” and “inexcusable.”

One top comment on Reddit described the joke as “absolutely shameful.”

“I wish I was surprised… but gd it still turns my stomach knowing I was cheering for them just yesterday,” the commenter wrote of the men’s team.

Others in the Reddit thread expressed their disappointment with brothers Quinn and Jack Hughes, the latter of whom scored the golden goal for the U.S. men on Sunday, for appearing to laugh at the joke.

The siblings’ mother, Ellen Weinberg-Hughes, played for the U.S. women’s team in the early ’90s and worked as a player development consultant for the squad in Milan.

Trump’s proposed date for Team USA’s White House visit — Wednesday — notably conflicts with the date that the NHL season is set to resume play following an extended break due to the Winter Olympics.

Professional Women’s Hockey League players are also set to return to the ice on Thursday.
